Holy crap, this city loves St. Patrick's Day. On the drive/walk between the sushi place and my apartment, at 7pm, I saw:

  • a pair of young long-locked gentlemen, one of whom copped a leprechaun accent and said "And a happy St. Paddy's day to you fine folks!" while doffing his hat in a practiced bow as he swept past. A google imagesearch for top of ( Read more... )

AHAHA OH NO. Chasing Liberty is SO BAD. SO BAD. I absolutely ADORED her in Saved!, but Chasing Liberty is cheese to the max. But enjoyable if only for Matthew Goode's preppy good looks. Mandy's only as good as the script she has, really. One movie I really really loved her in was Dedication, and I enjoyed it despite the fact that I think Billy Crudup is a gigantic BLUE PENIS. So that says a lot.

I can't really stand Shia, but I have a brain crush on JGL, leftover from his days on Third Rock from the Sun, even though he had that hideous haircut. I enjoyed him in the Lookout, but I didn't get the intellectual boner that everyone else seemed to get over Brick. I just love that he does indie shit now and uploads videos of himself filming the paparazzi to youtube. EXCEPT NOW HE'S IN THE DAMN G.I. JOE MOVIE AS COBRA COMMANDER, which I guess is my excuse to see it now (even though I was already going to see it because I think Channing Tatum is awesome and hot and the evil dude who used be one of the Dr. Whos is actually kind of hot with his little accent.) UGH BUT DENNIS QUAID. That movie looks like it's going to be TURD SOUP and yet I will download and watch it, I guarantee it. And somehow, JGL will come out looking squeaky clean because he's JGL and he runs the universe.

WHATEVER. CLEARLY I AM A MOVIE CONNOISSEUR. Now pass me the melba toast and brie while I pop in a VHS of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

(GOD, SO MANY ITALICS TAGS)

ugh, mock my italics close-tagging disability why don't you! The exclamation point threw me off, obvs. To punish you, I will stop using them entirely because they are TRES DIFFICILE.

OH CHANNING TATUM. Between Stop-Loss and a Guide to Recognizing Your Saints, he seems to be beffies with every boy, plus he was in the original Step Up, SO HE WINS AT LIFE. Maybe next he'll move in with the Gossip Girl guys and my life will be complete. I had not heard there was going to be a GI Joe movie, and yet the idea seems to be at peace within my heart. OF COURSE there must be a GI Joe movie, of course. No one is surprised.

...I had to imdb Billy Crudup just now because while I think Dr. Manhattan's voice was really well-done, I seem to hate every other big movie the man's ever been in: Big Fish, The Good Shepherd, Almost Famous. However, I will probably try to see Dedication on your rec: although it is about illustrated children's books, which I find absolutely nauseating, five weeks into my job cataloguing them. :|

In conclusion: when I was in high school, I couldn't decide if I thought Tommy from 3rd Rock or Frances from Malcolm was hotter. OBVS A CROSSOVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN BORN.

Ugh, I wrote up this big thing about Channing Tatum and then LJ ate my fucking comment. Clearly LJ doesn't like him as much as I do. He's surprisingly intelligent and lovely, despite the fact that he looks like a meathead (sexy meathead, but meathead non the less).

Ugh, Billy Crudup will forever be known as the dick that dumped Mary Louise Parker when she was eight months pregnant for his co-star on the movie he was working on, Claire Danes. What's sort of funny was that Jeffrey Dean Morgan (ugh, my infatuation with him has become very sad indeed) was dating/engaged to Mary Louise while he was working with Billy. Ahah, awkward.

My only REAL celeb crush in high school was Leonardo DiCaprio, although I did have a brief fling with David Boreanaz. But Tommy had a wee spot in my heart <3

I started writing that remix today. I got like... THREE SENTENCES out, but it's a start I guess :P

OHMYGOD SERIOUSLY? ARE YOU FOR SERIOUS? That is RLY RLY exciting, Kat! asfdkldsfgdgd. 3 sentences are about all I write anymore, either: I can sit down and maybe get like, a stolen couple hundred words but that's it, and it always seems so subpar and accidental. But then I have days like today where I'm supposed to be doing school, but I just mope around the house all day wishing certain fandoms existed so that I could read love stories instead, and nothing gets done in the RL category or the fandom category. Ugh.

Also, I was trying to figure out a way to slyly ask you and Edie when, exactly, the Comedian/Laurie Jupiter daddycest fic was coming out. BECAUSE IT'S A VERY NATURAL TRANSITION FOR YOU. No BLUE PENIS AT ALL.

I am serious. I was moping with Edie about it earlier because I was like, I WANT TO WRITE SEXYTIMEZ IN BUNKBEDS, BUT I CAN'T WRITE DEAN SEXUALLY ASSAULTING JO, so my only recourse was to make Dean slightly less evil in my version. But I LIKE your evil, horse-shooting Dean, so I'm trying to leave the jealous-evil side in place, just have him not be date rape Dean. It's stunted and I'm scared of mucking things up, so I'm moving at the pace of a paralyzed snail. PLEASE don't hate me if I muck it up. But yeah, your stuff was... more gen-ish and gorgeous, whereas I feel like mine is super focused on Jo and Dean and their teenage hormones that make them want to dry hump AND rip each others' faces off. Classy.

It's the first thing I've written in a month and a half (since that weirdo Jo/Sam/Dean thingy a while ago). I just don't feel the writing mojo anymore. What's annoying, like you said, is that I sit around whining about lack of shit that I want to read and that in turn makes me just not want to write anything. I need new fic and creativity to write and if I read one more Sam/Dean fic with the EXACT SAME PLOT as the last one I am going to cry... she says as she also attempts to write a sam/dean fic that's probably been written before.

Oh man, I could totally write Comedian/Laurie Jupiter daddycest fic TOO. STOP ENCOURAGING THIS MADNESS. I'd go bug Edie for it if I were you because she's a total mush when it comes to writing stuff if you ask her really nicely. And if she saw this comment? She'd FLAY ME ALIVE.

Dude, you know how uncomfortable I am with the fact that I even WROTE it that way to begin with. It was cheap, tbh. I am therefore glad that you are making it work without the rape-apologist bullshit that I had in there. IT'S A FREAKING RELIEF.

& I could not in good conscience guilt Edie into writing anything! I merely send her sexy thoughts from within my massive cranium and refresh her journal a lot in the hopes that she had posted something new.
